Narrative
Christopher McDowell, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
I believe that everyone can reach their potential and the happiness they deserve, but we all need help along the way. I utilize a collaborative approach to face these challenges as a team.
I began my career by working with children in foster care for several years in multiple settings. I eventually joined The Home for Little Wanderers for my final doctoral internship, a child welfare agency in the impoverished areas of Boston. I stayed with the Home for 8 years, focusing on psychotherapy, treatment team/service management and coordination, and emergency management. I entered private practice in 2017, working for Collaborations in Clinical Care in Canton, MA. I then moved to North Carolina in 2021, and I currently work in Apex center.

Narrative
Robin Okun
Therapist, LICSW
Real growth doesn't require a commute; it happens when you feel safe enough to put down the weight you've been carrying. As a remote clinician, I maintain a private space where busy women can step away from daily demands and focus entirely on themselves.
My approach goes beyond surface-level advice. As both a clinician, a parent, and someone who has experienced therapy firsthand, I know how deeply that fit matters. Together, we’ll untangle self-doubt, address the impact of past experiences, and help you tune into your body's signals. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, giving you practical strategies to navigate life's challenges and foster genuine ease.

Narrative
Dr. Kirsten Christensen
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I'm a firm believer that you don’t need to wait until things get really bad to start therapy.
Every person is unique, and therapy should be the same - that’s why I take a tailored, individualized approach that’s flexible to meet your needs and goals. The foundation of my work is a multicultural-feminist perspective that positions you as the expert of your own experience. I take a warm, collaborative approach to help you get clarity about who you are and how you want your life to look. I also integrate evidence-based interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and relational frameworks. My goals involve helping clients move upstream to identify and resolve systemic and personal patterns that keep them stuck and working together to find more joy.
I also believe that the personal is political. More often than not, sociopolitical systems of oppression like racism, sexism, heterosexism, transphobia, ableism, and more directly impact mental health. As a result, I take an actively anti-racist, intersectional, identity-affirming approach with clients across a broad spectrum of marginalization and privilege.
I specialize in working with college students, graduate students, young adults, and professionals in Massachusetts on a variety of common issues including: mood (anxiety, depression), identity development, life transitions and adjustment, ADHD, relationship issues, academic and career issues, and burnout.
